One embodiment of the present invention relates to a method with which a terminal transmits an acknowledgement of reception in a wireless communication system, the method comprising the steps of: acquiring downlink control information (DCI) via an enhanced physical downlink control channel (EPDCCH); receiving downlink data via physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH); and transmitting an acknowledgement of reception on the downlink data via a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource; and when the PDSCH is transmitted on a SCell (secondary cell) and the PDSCH is instructed by the EPDCCH, the PUCCH resource is determined on the basis of the transmit power control (TPC) field included in the DCI.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A method for transmitting a reception response in a wireless communication system, performed by a User Equipment (UE), the method comprising: acquiring Downlink Control Information (DCI) via an Enhanced Physical Downlink Control Channel (EPDCCH); receiving downlink data on a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH); and transmitting a reception response to the downlink data by using Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) resources, wherein, if the PDSCH is transmitted on a Secondary Cell (SCell) and indicated by the EPDCCH, the PUCCH resources are determined to correspond to a combination of a value of the Transmit Power Control (TPC) field and a value of an offset field related to the PUCCH resources, among 16 PUCCH resource values, indicated by higher-layer signaling.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the offset field is padded with 0s.
3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the EPDCCH is transmitted in a Primary Cell (PCell).
4. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the offset field is a Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest (HARQ)-ACKnowledgment (ACK) resource offset field.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the value of the offset field related to the PUCCH resources indicates one of {−2, −1, 0, 2}.
6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the DCI is formatted in one of DCI format 1, DCI format 1A, DCI format 1B, DCI format 1D, DCI format 2, DCI format 2A, DCI format 2B, DCI format 2C, and DCI format 2D.
7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the reception response includes at least one of an ACK, a Negative ACK (NACK), and a Discontinuous Transmission (DTX).
8. A User Equipment (UE) for transmitting a reception response to an Enhanced Physical Downlink Control Channel (EPDCCH) in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising: a reception module; and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to acquire Downlink Control Information (DCI) via an EPDCCH, receive downlink data on a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH), and transmit a reception response to the downlink data by using Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) resources, and wherein, if the PDSCH is transmitted on a Secondary Cell (SCell) and indicated by the EPDCCH, the PUCCH resources are determined to correspond to a combination of a value of the Transmit Power Control (TPC) field and a value of an offset field related to the PUCCH resources, among 16 PUCCH resource values, indicated by higher-layer signaling.
